Paypal Seller Protection
A buyer might make a claim, for example, with Paypal, if they believe that an item hasn't been received or the payment from their account is unauthorised.

They could open a dispute with the Paypal Resolution Centre, or they might issue a chargeback in order to get their money back.

If the buyer is making a false claim, sellers using Paypal are protected by Paypal Seller Protection and shouldn't lose out - provided that they've satisfied eligibility requirements.

Is your sale eligible?
For your sale to be eligible for protection from disputes and chargebacks with Paypal:

• The item must be a physical, tangible good
• The transaction should be marked - by Paypal - as ‘eligible’ or ‘partially eligible’ for PayPal Seller Protection on the ‘transaction details’ page, and in your confirmation email. If ‘partially eligible’, you'll be covered only if the buyer claims that the item wasn't received. You can find the 'transaction details' by logging into Paypal, finding the transaction in question, and selecting the 'details' link.
• You must have posted the item to the shipping address on the ‘transaction details' page
• The buyer must have paid in a single payment
• Your primary residence listed on your Paypal account must be in the UK or Ireland
• You must have followed all postage requirements

Exceptions to Paypal protection
If you deliver an item in person, or allow the buyer to collect it - you won't be protected by Paypal if the buyer opens a dispute.

If you've sold a service or a licence for digital content, you won't be protected, either.

TOP TIPS

• To make sure your are protected by Paypal's Seller Protection, always keep proof of postage, and proof of delivery.
• Remember, goods delivered or picked up in person, or posted to an address other than that on your 'Transaction Details' page, will not be protected from potentially false claims, or chargebacks.

Postage requirements
If a buyer claims for an unauthorised payment, you must have proof of postage to be protected.

If they claim that an item wasn't received, you'll also need proof of delivery.

Proof of postage must be online or physical documentation from the postal company that includes all the following:

• A status of 'shipped' (or equivalent) and the date of postage
• The recipient’s address, showing at least the city/county or postcode (or international equivalent).
• Official acceptance from the shipping company (for example, a postmark, receipt, or online tracking information).

Proof of delivery can be online documentation from a postal company that includes all the following:

• A status of 'delivered' (or equivalent) and the date of delivery.
• The recipient’s address, showing at least the city/county or postcode (or international equivalent).

Paypal time limits
A buyer must open a dispute via the Paypal Resolution centre within 180 days of making the payment. This is an extension of the 45 days which it was previously. Buyers are encouraged to deal directly with sellers to resolve the dispute.

If a resolution can't be found, the buyer can escalate the complaint -but only within 20 days of opening the dispute. Otherwise, Paypal will close the dispute and the buyer won't be eligible for reimbursement.

During the claims process, Paypal may require documentation to support your position, such as proof of postage and delivery.

Once a dispute is escalated, Paypal will - after surveying the evidence - make a decision in favour of the buyer or seller.

If you've followed all the requirements for your sale to be eligible for Paypal Seller Protection, it's unlikely that you'll lose out.

Paypal and chargebacks
A buyer may choose to file a chargeback through their bank. Credit card chargeback rights may be broader than Paypal's terms and conditions - for example, they can be filed more than 45 days after payment and may cover intangible items.

If a buyer has opened a claim with Paypal and they then file a chargeback, Paypal will close their claim and the buyer will have to rely on chargeback rights.

Paypal and eBay
Buyers paying through Paypal for items bought on eBay are also protected by eBay's Money Back Guarantee policy. It can be used for problem eBay items, such as those not being 'as described' or not received.

Like Paypal, if a buyer files a chargeback with their bank, eBay's Money Back Guarantee Programme will no longer pursue the claim.

There are differences between the eBay scheme and chargeback with banks, around time-frames and eligibility requirements.

And, again, a buyer can't seek resolution through Paypal and eBay systems at once

In the real world.. if one of my buyers doesn't get the package they either email me or open a case. In either case I asked if they want a refund or a replacement and send as per their choice.
My shipments are sent by first class UK or std air mail and I get a proof of posting from the post office. I don't use recorded because ebay insists on a free shipping option and it just bumps the price up.
I don't get many losses as r.m is pretty good if you address things clearly but when I do I just send the pop form and they always pay up.
I have had an eBay shop since 2008, and have had a few disputes that all were resolved in my favour.
Long live eBay...

I have had only good experience of ebay.
Twice things that I ordered did not arrive, when I contacted the sellers they did not respond, so I opened a dispute that was settled in my favour.

 

[the_killjoy]

Most people on Ebay are honest, as a seller I have had buyers say that things haven't been delivered so I give a refund straight away ~ only to hear from them a couple of weeks later to say it has turned up and they offer to refund my refund.

I think a lot depends on what you're selling.. Computers and phones are a really dodgy area, whereas I sell camera covers and it would seem that photographers are an honest bunch..

You can only take consecutive shots until you hit the buffer when it will slow down and stop until it's finished writing the last file.
Depending on the camera .. I would tether to a laptop and use software to do it.
I haven't done that for a while but can dig out a few links if it would help.

Mine have all been canon and I always shoot raw so the files take a lot of writing. You said you want to set it to shoot continously. Well I don't know how nikon work but if I wanted to do that I would connect to a laptop either by usb or an ad hock network and use Software To program the camera to shoot at set times for as long as you want.
I have a little gadget that allows wireless live view with full remote control from a phone or tablet. I can set the camera up outside and remotely pan and tilt taking shots as and when by creating it's own network that the camera connects to. I assume it would work with nikon but I don't know.
How much money have you got spare?
Bit late now but will get some info together and pm you tomorrow....

my image size is 6016x4000 jpeg fine does raw as well but makes 2 files.

is it a faster mem card i need or more space as cant lug all that round with me be pita.

 

[Gubbins]

A lot depends in what you are wanting to do.
It should do jpeg, jpeg+raw or raw on its own.
Why do you want it to shoot continously until the card is full.
